How do I disable ISA 2004, and will that affect SBS 2003 in any way?
I have recently installed a Sonicwall and made it the default gateway of my SBS2003 network at the corporate office. Well, I have a remote office with the same sonicwall ( TZ-170 ) and a direct VPN tunnel connecting the two.
The users at the remote office cannot get into the corporate intranet page on the SBS2003. I do not believe it is a SW issue but a ISA issue? So, I was going to disable ISA but cannot figure out how or if this will effect the SBS network as SBS is a little shaky at times? The intranet ( companyweb ) is on port ( 80 https ) ( 444 SSL ) and both are wide open on the SW and ISA?

If you have multiple External IP Addresses you CAN do this. Please see http://sbsurl.com/vpntunnel for the how-to.

and if you don't have multiple external ip's?
If you don't have multiple external IP's then either get them, or get rid of ISA Server.

P. S. Since the asker of the question is in the PDT time zone, I'd assume it's relatively cheap to get additional external IP's.

lol - yeah, probably.
The question assumed that ISA Server needed to be disabled, but that was an incorrect assumption as I explained in http:#20153444

Thanks to all for responding!
I reran the ceicw and checked the "..make intranet website available.." which forced SBS to open that port. So, it wasn't really an ISA problem at all, nor a sonicwall issue!!! All is working as expected.
I have numerous questions concerning SBS2003; like a fresh install of SBS2003 over an existing install as my CEO wants to change our domain from a .com to a .org. Honestly I have so many things running and built it makes me really nervous to consider this? Can someone lead or point me in the right direction.
The Issue above is closed and Thx again.

To be pedantic, the question asked how to disable ISA and its implications. That said, if its sorted then great news.

If you don't want ISA then unistall it and re-run the ceicw and remove the isa firewall client from the work stations.
